Schiessrothried is a small lake, also known as Lac de Schiessrothried, in the Alsatian side of the Vosges, of glacial origin. It is located at an elevation of 926 m, its surface area is 0.056 km2.
Its waters eventually join the Fecht (a local river) via a small tributary, the Wormsabachrunz, which empties into Lac de Fischboedle, which is nearby. It is located near the foot of Hohneck and near the Kastelberg, in the Wormsa Valley. It was originally a bog and only became a lake after a small barrage was built, making many believe that it is of natural origin.
